Comparing Sensorimotor and Dual-Task Training Effects on Balance, Mobility, and Fall Risk in Stroke Patients Aged 40 to 60

What this Trial Is About

This research aims to compare the effects of sensorimotor training and dual-task training on proprioception, balance, functional mobility, and fall risk in people who have had a stroke. Stroke often causes long-term issues such as impaired sensory-motor integration, balance problems, walking difficulties, and increased risk of falls, especially in those with chronic stroke. The study focuses on improving these challenges to enhance independence and quality of life for stroke survivors. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups sensorimotor training, dual-task training, or conventional physical therapy. Each group will follow an exercise program that includes warm-up and cool-down periods, lasting 30 minutes per session, three times a week for eight weeks. Sensorimotor training targets sensory and motor integration to improve balance and posture, while dual-task training combines motor and cognitive tasks to enhance coordination and mobility. Before and after the 8-week program, participants will be evaluated using tests such as the Mini-BESTest, Joint Position Sense Test, Berg Balance Scale, 6-Minute Walk Test, Functional Independence Measure, and Falls Efficacy Scale-International. These assessments measure proprioception, balance, mobility, and risk of falling. The study will monitor progress and analyze data to understand how each training method affects stroke recovery over time.
